The best camping near Robertsville State Park guide

Overview

About

Looking for a secluded getaway close to the city? Just 50 minutes outside of St. Louis, Robertsville State Park is a rustic retreat, perfect for an off-grid getaway. The Meramec River and Calvey Creek border the park, offering scenic spots for fishing and boating. Hike through the hardwoods, watching for migratory birds, an oxbow slough, rippling streams, and pawpaw trees. If you’re lucky you might find some pawpaw fruit in late summer or early fall. Though almost-forgotten, it is the largest edible native fruit in North America. After a day of exploring the grand wilderness, camp under a canopy of trees..

When to go

As fall arrives, October offers the best chance for enjoying the colorful foliage before temperatures begin to drop below freezing in the winter months.
